Can you merge the following branch into the arm64 tree please.
This is to complete part of the UAPI disintegration for which the preparatory
patches were pulled recently.
Now that the fixups and the asm-generic chunk have been merged, I've
regenerated the patches to get rid of those dependencies and to take account of
any changes made so far in the merge window. If you have already pulled the
older version of the branch aimed at you, then please feel free to ignore this
request.
The following changes since commit 9e2d8656f5e8aa214e66b462680cf86b210b74a8:

It still fails on arm64. The reason is that I had a __SYSCALL_COMPAT
guard to provide either the 32-bit syscalls or the 64-bit (generic) ones
via asm/unistd.h. With this change:

the guard disappears and I get conflicting entries between unistd32.h
and unistd.h.
The solution is to either keep the __SYSCALL_COMPAT guard in place or
rename all the __NR_* macros in unistd32.h to __NR_compat_* and include
unistd32.h explicitly where needed (kernel-only header anyway). Since
the arm64 kernel would not export 32-bit headers, I would go with the
second solution (tried it already). But you need to re-generate the
arm64 headers again.
BTW, I see the script generated some pretty much empty
uapi/asm/unistd.h. Is it possible to using something like Kbuild and
just add "generic-y += ..." to just point it to the
include/uapi/asm-generic header?

Hmmm.
Why does asm/unistd.h get #included for the compat bits at all? Looking in
arch/arm64/kernel/sys32.S could the compat syscall table be generated by a
direct #inclusion of asm/unistd32.h instead?
Is there a reason that asm/unistd32.h needs to declare __NR_ macros? Looking
at signal32.c and sys_compat.c you only need:
__ARM_NR_compat_cacheflush
__ARM_NR_compat_set_tls
and:
__NR_sigreturn
__NR_rt_sigreturn
__NR_restart_syscall
could you define __ARM_NR_ versions of the last three and get rid of all the
__NR_ constant definitions by putting the numbers directly into the __SYSCALL
macros?

That sounds workable too... Certainly easier to do with a text editor than
folding the compat __NR_ values into their __SYSCALL() macros.
Either way, you can then blithely always include unistd32.h without having to
wriggle to avoid the duplicate symbols.
> But you need to re-generate the arm64 headers again.
Regeneration is certainly quick and (usually) easy, but I need to change the
base to end up with a different result. Do you want me to rename all the
__NR_* to __NR_compat_* before doing that (if you have a patch to do so, I can
incorporate that on the arm64 branch prior to doing the disintegration).

Yes. Note that I was asked not to lose copyright notices if they were
present, which is why you've ended up with that.
At this point, I'd rather not adjust the disintegration script, so fixing it
up after would be simplest.

Yes, that's what I tried. But since unistd.h gets included indirectly as
well, I have to change the __NR_* definitions in unistd32.h to avoid
conflicts (once done, it's fine again).

I would name them __NR_compat_ rather than __ARM_NR_ as the latter
usually means architecture-specific system call.

I'll push a patch tomorrow so you can run your script on that branch. I
can also fix things up after merging your current branch (it breaks
bisectability but it doesn't matter much for arm64, it's only a few
patches).

OK, it makes sense.
Thanks.
